Ripple Signs Massive Deal with UAE Exchange – Bitcoinist.com

Despite the recent skepticism, Ripple has received a big-time boost by signing a massive deal with major foreign exchange UAE Exchange.

The Proof Is in the Partnership

Ripple has come under criticism as of late, with a massive sell-off of XRP followed by skepticism as to the number of financial institutions even interested in using the third-ranked cryptocurrency in the first place. However, Ripple has fired back at the haters by garnering another significant partner.

According to Business Insider, Ripple has penned a deal with major foreign exchange UAE Exchange, who is interested in using the blockchain technology to power their payments.

UAE is now set to join the RippleNet network, which utilizes blockchain technology to send real-time international payments at unprecedented speeds. Says Promoth Manghat, CEO of UAE Exchange:

Incorporating Ripple’s blockchain technology into our payments systems will bring customers an enhanced, new payments experience. The early adoption of this game-changing technology allows us to offer a competitive service, as it will have an impact on the speed and cost of cross-border transactions.

Manghat has long been a serious proponent of blockchain technology, which has been made even more evident by partnering with Ripple. In an October interview with Arabian Business, he explained:

Personally, I am a big champion of Blockchain and foresee its disruptive potential not merely in the financial services industry but across a gamut of industries. Fundamentally what Blockchain does is establishing transparency and trust and thereby reducing transaction costs … On the face of it, the average consumer may never know about blockchain, but indirectly he will reap the benefits of the efficiencies it brings forth across industries in his everyday life.
